Bug ID: 237715
Summary: maxproc needs a default value
Product: Base System
Version: 12.0-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: conf
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Creating a shell file with something like $0&$0& will kill any FreeBSD machine
with the default configuration. (Also kills the host when you try this in a
jail)
In bash;
:() { :|: & };:
There should be at least some default value set for maxproc in login.conf,
unlimited is asking for trouble. :-)
Be careful with this, it takes down your machine hard and only recovery is
power cycle or hard reset.
